A review by guardyourhonor
The Vanishing Season by Joanna Schaffhausen

4.0

I loved this, and I've already read most of the rest of the series. The mystery was very well done - I was able to guess who did it, but not until shortly before the reveal, so I felt smug about figuring it out rather than annoyed that it was obvious. I love a mystery where I can put things together along with the characters. Speaking of whom, I loved Ellery and Reed. I like the alternating between their viewpoints, since they both bring something so different. Their relationship is also really complex and engaging and emotional.

Lastly, I loved the way the book neatly critiqued the culture around True Crime.
